ProFootballTalk.com reports Bucs RB Earnest Graham has been diagnosed with a torn Achilles' tendon. Graham was initially diagnosed with an ankle injury, but a torn Achilles would be consistent with the untouched manner in which he went down. It's a devastating injury for the 31-year-old passing down back, and one that could very possibly end his career. There will now be immense pressure on LeGarrette Blount to return after the Bucs' Week 8 bye, especially after Kregg Lumpkin showed nothing in Graham's absence. The Bucs will likely scour the open market for a veteran replacement. Graham should end up on injured reserve later this week.

Great move by me, picking him on Friday as a FA to play him this week for 1.28 points....
